Development of System for Distributing Urgent Evacuation Information During Tsunami and Its Applications
Abstract eng: The 2011 Great East Japan Earthquake exposed limitations of present hazard maps and evacuation manual for unexpected earthquake and tsunami. In particular, information for the tsunami evacuation of residents was premised on mass evacuation, and this could be a major cause of delays in the tsunami evacuation. A system of distributing urgent evacuation information during tsunami has been developed by utilizing the Japan Meteorological Agency's “Earthquake Early Warning and Information on Earthquakes, Volcanic Activity and Tsunamis.” Based on information about the earthquake and the tsunami height, the system identifies appropriate evacuation spots, disseminates information about them, and allows an administrator and family members to check on the safety of a registered user upon completion of evacuation. A series of tsunami evacuation drills were conducted, to examine the usefulness of the system, as well as to improve the details of the system.
